Jackie Chan, Zhang Yimou in Talks

Jackie Chan is in talks with famed Chinese director Zhang Yimou about a possible collaboration, his spokesman said Monday.

Spokesman Solon So said Chan and Zhang have held several discussions but haven't agreed on a project.

"Both parties are interested but they need to find the right script," So said.

Chan said last year he and Zhang conferred on a story set in the 1980s but wouldn't reveal details.

Zhang is known for films like "Raise the Red Lantern," "Hero" and "House of Flying Daggers." One of China's most respected directors, he has won the Golden Lion award at the Venice Film Festival twice.

Most recently, he filmed "Curse of the Golden Flower," a movie about ancient Chinese imperial politics starring Gong Li and Chow Yun-fat.

Meanwhile, the Hua Shang Bao newspaper reported that Chan is making preparations to film the third installment of his "Armor of God" series.
